Today is Smithton home-coming. It looks like rain this morning. Uncle Fred, Aunt Mary, Henry & Leona & the kids were all here for dinner today. After dinner we all went up to Smithton to see the parade. It was sure nice. We went home about 5:30. They had such a big crowd there. I guess in the evening it was worse yet. It was nice & cool today. They had a mule there that did all kinds of stunts. This evening Steve Rennecker came over a little while & talked with us and also Nicci Rausch was here a little while.

Today there is homecoming in New Athens. This evening we went out to Henry’s a little while, they are going to thrash Monday morning. I saw in the paper that Mr. & Mrs. Raymond Koch have the blessing of a little boy since last Thursday. They now have a boy and a girl. Mr. [and Mrs.] Jacob Miller celebrated their 29th wedding anniversary on July 2.
